ActionScript 3.0 :: Using Regular Expressions With String Replace Method?
Aug 26, 2009I'm trying to use regular expressions with the String.replace() method to manipulate a string to replace all instances of a forward slash "/" with a period "."
So for instance, if I start with this String:
"things/stuff/cheese/yum"
I want to convert it to:
"things.stuff.cheese.yum"
Easy enough if I want to replace a letter... let's say I wanted to replace all instances of the letter "e", I would do this:
Code:
var str:String = "things/stuff/cheese/yum";
var myPattern:RegExp = /e/g;
trace(str.replace(myPattern, "."));
// returns: "things/stuff/ch..s./yum"
... but how do I replace all instances of "/"??

View 3 RepliesRegex :: Twitter Regular Expressions?
Aug 10, 2010I need 3 different regular expressions one that finds at the beginning of the string a 'D' and a space then a name, so 'D patrickgates hello there' would return 'D patrickgates', or if all possible would return just 'patrickgates' one that will find the @ sign and a name together anywhere in the string so '@patrickgates hello, world' would work and return '@patrickgates' or if at all possible would return just 'patrickgates' one that will find 'RT' and a space and then '@' and the username at the beginning of the string so 'RT @patrickgates' would work if returning just the username and also being true isn't possible with one regex, then I could use one to match to, and one that will delete the 'D' or the '@' or the 'RT'.
